Fungus Among Us! June Gloom Giveaway

Project 52 #11. Yes, I realize that I am now way behind with one project per week. Ya think?! I'm waiting for the pressure to build so I can focus. lol!
Well, that and school will let out in a week and I will have the summer off. Yay! I made these mushrooms using wooden spools with a bit of paint added and some scrap fabric that was stamped with acryllic paint. Lengths of paper are added with favorite quotes concerning imagination and creativity. 
The idea comes from Somerset's Winter issue of 'Sew' magazine. Deborah Boschert shows tells us how she made hers. She was thinking about how inspiration just suddenly pops up; somewhat like mushrooms over night.

These were a very photogenic subject! 
My June Gloom Giveaway refers to our misty morning in June here. Although, I never feel gloomy since it burns off by about 11 and then is hot(I mean HOT!) and sunny. Nevertheless, I would like to give away a red mushroom to each of two winners. I must hold onto the blue since it is the color I just made over my family room(and the reason I have not blogged lately with making new cushions and table  linens etc.). 
If you would like to enter to win, simply leave me a comment telling where you find inspiration for your projects and artwork. 
I will choose 2 winners on June 30th. Good luck and have a lovely day!
